Fig. 1 Supportive findings for diagnosis of the patient. (A) Neck CT scans demonstrate a 2.2 × 2.1 × 2.2 cm heterogeneously enhancing mass (arrow) in the right parotid gland. (B) Histological examination of the specimen reveals non-necrotizing coalescing granulomas, composed of epithelioid cells and scattered multinucleated giant cells (arrow). The multinucleated giant cells are of Langhans type. Mature lymphoplasma cells form a concentric rim around the granuloma. Granulomatous inflammation irregularly infiltrates normal salivary parenchyma and peri-parotid soft tissue (Hematoxylin and eosin stained, × 100).
